What might be making you a tad apprehensive, but might not, as it's too soon to tell

[glatt]

Now my daughter is throwing up. What is that, 6 days later or so?

Ugh.

Time to clean everything again. At least we were healthy for Christmas.

[Clodfobble]

Dang, so much more frustrating when you thought you were past it. Hope she's better in time to go back to school.

[glatt]

How are you doing, Clodfobble?

[Clodfobble]

Oh, much better. Everyone went to bed early last night, so I got to as well. Minifobette has taken a turn back for the worse, but I seem to have escaped relatively unscathed.

[glatt]

Did I mention it got Mrs glatt this morning? I'm the sole survivor looking nervously around me.

Supposed to have a neighbor kid sleep over tonight while his parents are on the road. I'm trying to reach the parents so they can figure out a plan B.

Still waiting on Pete... Also teh boyfriend is here recovering from his snowboarding accident, will he succumb?

[Clodfobble]

Before we left my in-laws' house this morning, my sister-in-law started puking. We've still got three left in the house unaffected; I'm expecting this to get everyone before it's all over.

[Griff]

Typhoidfobble?

[Clodfobble]

Ha! Could be Mr. Clod, we'll have to keep an eye on that rascal...

[orthodoc]

The in-laws will all get it. Happy New Year!

This happened to us one Christmas long ago in Canada. Everyone, but everyone in my extended family traveled to be with us for the holidays. Absolutely everyone left with gastro. It was horrible. I sympathize, clod.

Oh, so that's why you refused to stay home. Misery loves company, and if you're going down, they're ALL going down.

[Clodfobble]

Heh... the motives were selfish, I agree: If we'd said we weren't coming, they just would have insisted on driving down to us instead. And then who knows how long they would have stayed. Better to just meet them on their turf and then beat a hasty retreat. Plus all the kids napped during the long car rides, which they wouldn't have done at home.

Minifobette hasn't thrown up in over three days, but she's still refusing to eat. We haven't decided yet if this is because she genuinely still feels nauseous, or because she's gotten it in her head that if she never eats again she'll never have to throw up again. She's the kind of kid who can stick to a decision like that, once she's made it.

I have numbness in the last two toes of both feet. In another few days it will reach the level of making an appointment about it.

What is that level? Are you waiting for numbness in MORE toes, or for the currently numb toes to rot and fall off?

Get thee to a doctory.

In another few days it will be New Years' Day, and no doctors will be open. Call today.

Or at the very least, go to the grocery store and pick up a little over-the-counter blood sugar test kit. It might be nothing, but I'd be worried about unchecked diabetes.
